Interface JAXXObject

All Superinterfaces:

JAXXContext, java.io.Serializable

public interface JAXXObject
extends JAXXContext, java.io.Serializable

The JAXXObject interface is implemented by all classes produced by the JAXX compiler.

Method Summary

void	addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener) Register a general PropertyChangeListener.
void	addPropertyChangeListener(java.lang.String property, java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener) Register a PropertyChangeListener. for the given propertyName.
void	applyDataBinding(java.lang.String id) Apply the data bind by name and then process it.
void	firePropertyChange(java.lang.String name, java.lang.Object oldValue, java.lang.Object newValue) All JAXXObject implements are capable of broadcasting PropertyChangeEvent, and furthermore (for technical reasons) must allow code in outside packages, specifically the JAXX runtime, to trigger these events.
java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object>	get$objectMap() Pretrieves the dictonary of knwon objects indexed by their ids.
JAXXBinding[]	getDataBindings()

Method Detail

getObjectById

java.lang.Object getObjectById(java.lang.String id)

Retrieves an object defined in an XML tag by its ID.

Parameters:

id - the id of the component to retrieve

Returns:

the object

get$objectMap

java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> get$objectMap()

Pretrieves the dictonary of knwon objects indexed by their ids.

Returns:

the dictonary of objects.

getDelegateContext

JAXXContext getDelegateContext()

Returns:

the JAXXContext attached to the object

getDataBindings

JAXXBinding[] getDataBindings()

Returns:

all the databinding registred on the jaxx object

registerDataBinding

void registerDataBinding(JAXXBinding binding)

Register a new binding in the jaxx object.

Parameters:

binding - the binding to add

applyDataBinding

void applyDataBinding(java.lang.String id)

Apply the data bind by name and then process it.

Parameters:

id - the id of the databinding

processDataBinding

void processDataBinding(java.lang.String dest)

Processes a data binding by name. Data binding names are comprised of an object ID and a property name: for example, the data binding in the tag <JLabel id='label' text='{foo.getText()}'/> is named "label.text". Processing a data binding causes it to reevaluate its expression, in this case foo.getText().

Parameters:

dest - the name of the data binding to run

processDataBinding

void processDataBinding(java.lang.String dest,
                        boolean force)

Processes a data binding by name. Data binding names are comprised of an object ID and a property name: for example, the data binding in the tag <JLabel id='label' text='{foo.getText()}'/> is named "label.text". Processing a data binding causes it to reevaluate its expression, in this case foo.getText().

Parameters:

dest - the name of the data binding to run

force - flag to force binding, even if already on run

removeDataBinding

void removeDataBinding(java.lang.String id)

Remove a databinding by name.

Parameters:

id - the name of databinding to remove

firePropertyChange

void firePropertyChange(java.lang.String name,
                        java.lang.Object oldValue,
                        java.lang.Object newValue)

All JAXXObject implements are capable of broadcasting PropertyChangeEvent, and furthermore (for technical reasons) must allow code in outside packages, specifically the JAXX runtime, to trigger these events.

Parameters:

name - the name of the property which changed

oldValue - the old value of the property

newValue - the new value of the property

addPropertyChangeListener

void addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener)

Register a general PropertyChangeListener.

Parameters:

listener - the listener to register

addPropertyChangeListener

void addPropertyChangeListener(java.lang.String property,
                               java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener)

Register a PropertyChangeListener. for the given propertyName.

Parameters:

property - the property name to listen

listener - the listener to register

removePropertyChangeListener

void removePropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener)

Unregister a general PropertyChangeListener.

Parameters:

listener - the listener to unregister

removePropertyChangeListener

void removePropertyChangeListener(java.lang.String property,
                                  java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener)

Unregister a PropertyChangeListener. for the given propertyName.

Parameters:

property - the property name to listen

listener - the listener to unregister

getParentContainer

<O extends java.awt.Container> O getParentContainer(java.lang.Class<O> clazz)

Type Parameters:

O - type of container to obtain from context

Parameters:

getParentContainer

<O extends java.awt.Container> O getParentContainer(java.lang.Object top,
                                                    java.lang.Class<O> clazz)

Return parent's container corresponding to the Class clazz

Type Parameters:

O - type of container to obtain from context

Parameters:
